10 Fresh Ways to Style Jeans That Don’t Look Casual At All
Sometimes putting together an outfit to go out seems too fussy—whether that be some sort of fancy party dress or trying to recreate a skirt ensemble from the runway. Personally, I am often running from a day full of meetings to an evening of events and want to keep things simple. That is why I always rely on elevated denim to dress up at night, for easy and effortless evening looks that still feel pulled together and bring that bit of “wow” factor.
Recently, I noticed quite a few cool outfits on Instagram, all incorporating denim, and seemingly perfect for a night out. So, I pulled together a few of my favorite combinations for you and shopped them out with the essential items to get these looks ASAP. Whether it be a lace bodysuit paired with baggy jeans for date night or an elegant, wrap top styled with dark denim flares for a dinner with friends, these are the best outfit ideas for going out. Believe me, they’re so simple to pull off, you too will be relying on these dressed up denim ideas for the foreseeable future.
